I have over 10 years of childcare and mommy/daddy helping experience. I began watching children in my home state of Texas and then worked as a full-time and part-time nanny for two families in New York, and did as needed babysitting for countless other families from 2003 until 2010. I worked as a full time nanny for a private family in San Francisco from 2012 to 2013. I have experience with kids of all ages, from birth to age 10, and have the ability, intuition and patience to balance the needs of children throughout their development. However, the bulk of my experience is with babies and toddlers. I come with excellent references. I also have my Master's in Social Work and have worked for several years as a social worker and criminal defense investigator. Currently, I am starting my own practice and I'm looking for families who need as-needed babysitting, Read more weekend, and date night or overnight care. Since I work for myself, my schedule can be flexible.
